Prostitute's $50 fee for two agents triggered Secret Service scandal

The Colombian prostitute who triggered the scandal that has rocked the Secret Service got angry with two agents who refused to pay her full price for servicing the two of them, leading to a financial dispute over between $40 and $60, according to a government source who has been briefed on the investigation.

Two agents from the service's elite Counter Assault Team, in Cartagena, Colombia, in advance of President Barack Obama's arrival for the Summit of the Americas over the weekend, had procured the women's services at a local strip club called the Pley Club on the evening of April 11. All the Secret Service agents and officers implicated in the scandal are believed to have gone to the club that evening and brought back women, a U.S. official told NBC News.

The controversy arose after one of the women went back to a hotel room with two agents. The woman wanted to be paid for serving both agents, the source who has been briefed on the probe told NBC News. Instead, the agents would only agree to split her price, prompting the woman to complain to local police who were stationed in the lobby of the Hotel Caribe, the source said.

The police then went up to the agents' room and began banging on the door, which the agents at first refused to open, the source said. There are conflicting reports over how the payment dispute was resolved. But two government sources told NBC News the police contacted the U.S. Embassy over the dispute and Embassy officials then arrived at the scene.

  • Hold on, so they don't collect money upfront? That's what Julie Roberts did in Pretty Woman. Also SHAME on them for being so cheap!! SHAME.

  • It's $60! When you're in a sensitive position like SS where this is likely to blow the eff up in your face YOU PAY WHAT SHE ASKS FOR! And then you tip her. The people who don't get caught aren't the ones cheaping out.

    I also want to come to the hooker bar. As you have heard from H, my hooker identification skills need honing.

    Hooker arranges meeting guy during the day where they set up a "date" time and place.

    Dude is staying at SM's hotel.

    Hooker shows up to hotel and is greeted by front desk clerk who gives her a room number and the OK to go upstairs.

    Hooker knocks on door, man opens door, hooker proceeds to immediately do her job.

    After the deed is done hooker asks for payment, man refuses.

    Hooker gets upset and calls the front desk to complain, front desk agent is in a tizzy.

    Front desk agent receives call from ANOTHER room asking if they have seen his "date"

    Front desk agent calls hooker back, lets her know she went to the wrong room, tells her to clean up and go to the correct rooom number

    ...and scene.
